Two United States Navy warships have entered the Taiwan Strait in what is the first US naval transit in the waterway since US-China tensions spiked this month over a visit to the island by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The guided-missile cruisers USS Antietam and USS Chancellorsville were on Sunday making the voyage "through waters where high seas freedoms of navigation and overflight apply in accordance with international law," the US 7th Fleet in Japan said in a statement.
It said the transit was "ongoing" and that there had been "no interference from foreign military forces so far."
So this White House and the Democratic party are looking to start a conflict somewhere with the Chinese/Taiwan story as the domestic agenda deteriorates.
US jumped to talk about helping the Ukraine, doing the same with Taiwan.
Just a thought.
